WANTED To JUMP 5000 FEET.

lam Baldwin, to jump from balloon
at the hight Of 5000 feet, at the West.
side Driving Park. Mr.. Onahsn told
him that the city was not engaged In
the business OF licensing people to
commit suicide, and he could not GET
any such permit. Bald win, 1t is
claimed, has made several similar
jumps elsewhere. 4 dispatch from
Quincy etates that on July 4th he
jumped 5000 feet, ia the presence OF
thousands OF people, and that the
town went wild over him. Hundreds
Of young men were trying to emulate

Baldwin has . parachute which
breaks the fall. Chief Ebeisold says
that even II they did not consider the
danger to the man who performed the
feat, they would withhold, because he
might siight on some one In the crowd

crOaching upon it. The world owes
much TO it's prophets, and seers. and
saints, all Of whom have been persons
who, by abstinence and prayer, have
Kept the body in subiectiOn, while the
soul was being nourished by the bread
and water of everlasting life. Let US
not forget that Goods will may be
writ in us as well as in our creeds." The
vague conception which the barbarian
had that, in mOrtifying the flesh, he
! rose INTO nearer relations to the spirit
ual, may have been the reason, little as
he understood it, Of his idea Of his fast
as religious service, and this it was,
perhaps, that led him blindly and incon-
sequentially to turn it over to the spirit
ual side of things. Be that as it may,
"the things which are seen are tenn
pOral the things which are not seen are
eternal"
All that was material and transitcry
in the customs of men may pass with
the years; but the eternal truths of
God and our relations to them can
never pass away. Out of that tempta-
tion in the wilderness the glory can
never pass. The more we contemplate
1t, the nearer we draw to it in spirit,
the more glorious it will appear; the
more glorious it appears, the more we
shall be drawn to it until its glory shall
envelope US, and we become like him
who fought and conquered there.
The true lesson of Lent, the one
which can never pass as childish and
vain, is that in the heart Of the Divine
Master, as in our own, there was bat
tie to be fought, a victory to be Won.
Appetite, vanity, ambition beset him
as they do us. He conquered only by
emptying his mind, his desires, of all
these, thus leaving room for the full
ness of divinity to flow in. About him,
as about us, ,clamored the lower passions,
clashed the lower voices. Hiswill stood
in the midst buffeted by these on
every side; without stood the higher
thoughts of faith, duty, love, God. The
test was whether the Master would
push back the barking broods of evil
and give place to the gentler spirits
In Jordan he had heard the voice Of
God; he shut the dark mob out and the
gentle angels came in and ministered
unto him. This is the story of the
true Lent 1t is quelling, and keeping
under the demons that distract and
mislead us, and giving room to the
angels that minister unto us. 1t is
making way to the soul along which
Iscnes lifesmay flow into the etheF.--the
life of God into the life of man. Let us
have, then, some small season, during
the years as they pass, devoted to re-
ligious thought and instruction. BY
some small sef-denial let us show that
we know something of that greater self
denial which began in the wilderness
and ended on Calvary.

GOD AND CREATION.
BY REV. K. o. WILLIAMS.
Upper Lisle, n. y

Every one must admit that all discus
sions concerning God, his being, his
doings in the infinite past, his evolving
or creating energies, and their marvel
Gus results, must, from the necessity of
the case, be more or less theoretical or
speculative. No one can go back into
the unfathomabie past to bring out as
a fact what God is doing and has been
doing in the immeasWable eternity.
No one can go back even to the origin
of vegetable and animal life, to deter
mine whether evolution, assumed as a
theory, is an absolute fact. All this is
mere theory, and much more that
might be added rises no higher than by
pOthesis or speculation. Arguments
based on such speculations are often
very fallaciOus and sometimes very fun
ny. But the fallacious and the funny
must alike be passed oYer-no time to
consider them here.

There are passages which rise to the pure at

is told by its heroine. The narrative borders
upon the outbreak of the civil war. Four
characters only are ntroduced-mother, sis

beautiful faith in the better world, and the
close sympathy between this and that better
world is expressed with rare delioacy. Death
